Planned Giving

Planned giving is making the decision today to provide for the COC’s future.

From creating a trust while you are living to including the COC in your will—a planned gift allows you to make a significant statement of support, often unlocking greater income while securing significant tax benefits.

These can include gifts of bequests, retirement funds, stocks and securities, gifts-in-kind, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, gifts of residual interest and life insurance.

The Encore Legacy Program

Donors who contribute through a planned gift or make a provision for the COC in their estate plans secure membership into the Encore Legacy of the COC.

Members of the Encore Legacy will receive lifetime acknowledgement in all performance programs and the souvenir book, as well as an invitation to attend a special Encore Legacy event each year.
